Okay, so now it's time to focus just a little bit more on my running. If I'm gonna do the Gold Coast half, I gotta start now. So after a few days rest and engorging myself on, well let's be honest, junk food, I had to do a pretty high intensity session. So a lactate threshold run it was on the treadmill. Until now speed while running hasn't mattered that much to me, but I'm recording it pretty carefully now. So I found a speed on the treadmill that pushed my HR to the lower-to-mid 180's and set about cruising at that speed for as long as possible to improve my threshold and hopefully speed in the future.
Data: speed=11.5-12km/hr (5min k's), held that for 6km's/30min, avg HR 180, max 192, 679 calories, 20%fat = 15g body fat burnt.
Not my usual fluency or physiological response to that speed, but I'm probably still recovering. We'll see how it goes. But I gotta start somewhere.
